Sinossi

The Memory Loop explores the intricate science of memory, revealing how our brains encode, store, and retrieve information. It examines the dynamic interplay between neural mechanisms and psychological factors that influence remembering and forgetting. Did you know memory isn't a static storage system but a reconstructive process, shaped by experiences? Understanding this can help address memory challenges and enhance cognitive potential; this also has implications for law, given the fallibility of eyewitness testimony.

 
The book establishes a foundation in brain architecture, focusing on key regions like the hippocampus, amygdala, and prefrontal cortex. It introduces concepts like synaptic plasticity and long-term potentiation. Uniquely, the book integrates neuroscience and psychology, bridging biological mechanisms with the experience of remembering.

 
The book unfolds in three sections: encoding, storage (including sleep's role), and retrieval. It concludes with memory enhancement strategies and ethical considerations, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding and empowering them to optimize cognitive functions.

Today Hong Kong Tomorrow the...

Mark L. Clifford

For 150 years as a British colony, Hong Kong was a beacon of prosperity where people, money, and technology flowed freely, and residents enjoyed many civil liberties. In preparation for handing the territory over to China in 1997, Deng Xiaoping promised that it would remain highly autonomous for fifty years. An international treaty established a Special Administrative Region (SAR) with a far freer political system than that of Communist China. 
 
 
 
But as the halfway mark of the SAR's lifespan approaches in 2022, it is clear that China has not kept its word. Universal suffrage and free elections have not been instituted, harassment and brutality have become normalized, and activists are being jailed en masse. This tragic backslide has dire worldwide implications. 
 
 
 
Today Hong Kong, Tomorrow the World tells the complete story of how a city once famed for protests so peaceful that toddlers joined grandparents became a place where police have fired tear gas, rubber bullets and even live ammunition at their neighbors, while pro-government hooligans attack demonstrators. A Hong Kong resident from 1992 to 2021, author Mark L. Clifford has witnessed this transformation firsthand. A powerful and dramatic mix of history and on-the-ground reporting, this book is the definitive account of one of the most important geopolitical standoffs of our time.

Encounterism - The Neglected...

Andy Field

A playful, analytical, informed, and poetic exploration of the delight and transformative power of real-life encounters. 
 
 
 
The light touch of a hairdresser's hands on one's scalp, the euphoric energy of a nightclub, huddling with strangers under a shelter in the rain, a spontaneous snowball fight in the street, a daily interaction with a homeless man—such mundane connections, when we closely inhabit the same space, and touch or are touched by others, were nearly lost to "social distancing." Will we ever again shake hands without a thought? 
 
 
 
In this deeply rewarding book, Andy Field brings together history, science, psychology, queer theory, and pop culture with his love of urban life and his own experiences—both as a city-dweller and as a performance artist—to forge creative connections: walking hand-in-hand with strangers, knocking on doors, staging encounters in parked cars. In considering twelve different kinds of encounters, from car rides to video calls to dog-walker chats in the park, Field argues "that in the spontaneity and joy of our meetings with each other, we might find the faint outline of a better future."
